days gone by chords by Jon Boden
Intro 1
C
Verse 1
C
Lying on the motorway this morning
I thought I heard a distant thunder rolling
G
C
Am
G
Em
F
So I lay so still on the mould away
C
Till the cavalcade came screaming past
Like hell hounds in my ears
Am
G
It was over in a moment,
C
F
the wind like a tornado
Am
G
The sweet perfume of petrol
C
F
like a lovers' party kiss
Am
G
Then I closed my eyes on
C
F
the mortal wave
C
And I dreamed about the days gone by,
brave boys
I dreamed about the days gone by
Lying on the motorway this evening
The gypsies came up close
while I'm sleeping
Am
G
So quietly he'd done
C
F
them all to waste
C
Pulling their possessions
in the cover of the night
Am
G
They'd soon seen the world end,
C
F
the shining black recession
Am
G
Screaming past like orbs
C
F
ascending through a tarmac sky
Am
G
So they hid themselves
C
F
by the motorway
C
They dreamed about the days gone by,
brave boys
They dreamed about the day
F
C
F
C
that's gone away
Am
G
And what were they doing,
C
F
those people from the government
Am
G
Burning sacrificial gasoline
C
F
to keep the dogs at bay
Am
G
There were shadows in the hedgerows,
C
F
G
and strange lights from the slip -roads
C
So we huddled on the motorway, boys
We huddled on the motorway
You
days gone by
